4700 is the better avr. It supports auro 3d as well. Go for it if the price difference isn’t huge. Interms of sound quality 3700 should be equally good to 4700
Hi,
Thanks. I also thought for 3700. But I don’t want to change again. Existing receiver which I am using 2300 is basic one and I upgraded my speakers I want AV receiver which can match and also I want dolby atmos good output. One more clarity I require that is 2300 having 95 watts for 8 ohms, 3700 105 and 4700 125.
Totally agree - it has Auro 3D, individual preamp mode, support for Dirac, and will be a current model if you’re not looking to upgrade soon. 3700H is a 2020 model, the 3800H has been released internationally, just not in India yet. They must be still liquidating old stock but IMHO the feature differential is worth waiting for
Yeah..
The $ price is up by 5% - but Dirac wil be about $300 more
still there is no update about indian prices . one dealer in Bangalore said it will cost above 2L. but in the international market price is around 1.2 - 1.5L. it was planned to come to the european market on the 20th . but they postponed it to the first week of November .
Frankly speaking the Denon 4xxx or Marantz SR 7xxx ideally shouldn't be costing more than Rs. 1,50,000 which was the case just a couple of years ago.

Why not try the Nad T758 V3 . It has 7 channels but should suffice in most cases plus with Dirac room correction. It may be around the same price as Denon.Denon AVR-X3800H Review
This is a review and detailed measurements of the Denon AVR-X3800H 9.4 Home Theater Audio/Video Receiver. It was kindly drop shipped to me by a member and costs US $1,699. Not much to say about the look of the unit as it is pretty much similar/same as last generations. Here is the back panel...
“I had high hopes going into this review thinking the company had seen the advantage its superior objective measurements in the past and would try to capitalize on them. Sadly, the reverse seems to be true with the DAC section taking a large step backward. Considering that the 3800 costs $500 more than 3700H, this is very surprising to me. Yes, inflation has a lot to do with that but surely the eye needed to be focused on making sure they at least met the same level of performance as last generation.”
Looks like they’ve cut costs and increased prices - I’ve read a lot of companies are facing DAC issues since the AKM fire
Sounds unfortunate, especially considering Denon is not even contesting the deteriorated DAC claim.Denon AVR-X3800H Review

One dealer said 1,99,000/- for 3800H is confirmed plus about 25,000-30,000 for Dirac
Too expensive. Reviews not that great either. Glad I settled for 3700H
